Abstract
Tucked away in a salient on the eastern borders of Iboland lies a small portion of land, the home of those who, for many centuries, were the acknowledged leaders of the tribe, to whose oracle litigants resorted as to a final Court of Appeal, and who, by their organizing genius and trading ability, obtained charge of all the important trade routes, and of the greater portion of the middleman's profits accruing from the barter of European goods, and, one must add, from slave traffic. Not thirty years have yet passed since the British expedition of 1901–2, by its destruction of the Aro Long Juju, dealt the blow which has led to a great loss of Arochukuan prestige.
